That would be amazing. I would use that as an option for sure.

Akiflow will support Outlook before the end of the year ;)

I've been using this for a week since reading this post and I'm enjoying it.
The quick capture is the killer feature for me, although it'd be even better if there was a shortcut which automatically captures context too (e.g. URL, email)- maybe there is and I'm missing it.
Mobile capture is a bit of a nuisance but sure you're aware of this. I think a WhatsApp bot would be the best way to give reliable offline or online capture without an app but I haven't seen anybody executing on that so perhaps there are issues with the idea.
Agree with the other comments about the calendly-lite features being unecessary for me, and add complexity to a fairly busy UI.
Thanks for the feedback!
We are looking into adding a whatsapp bot soon!
Regarding capture, you can do it on most browsers this way https://www.notion.so/akiflow/How-to-capture-texts-and-URLs-...

The first thing I look for in any productivity tool is keyboard shortcuts.
I see a lot of mouse clicking and dragging in the demo video. A truly productivity-focused tool should be heavily keyboard-shortcut based. Just my opinion :) Or are there Kb shortcuts that I am missing?
We actually have a lot of them and a command bar, we had to be more 'visual' in the demo video :D

After a while, we learned that what our users really wanted was to have everything in one place.
This is so spot on! We're having similar learnings with eesel [1] too. Work is far too scattered across apps. Thanks for sharing your journey so far and congrats on the launch!
Thank you! I've always been a fan of your product, great design! Happy to connect ;)

It seems this application was designed to be at parity with other task calendar applications such as https://TickTick.com?
Is there a roadmap alongside this product that shows at what stage this product plans to seperate itself from the; ticktick’s, sunsamas, and motions of the world?
I feel when selecting apps like these now a day the real question is almost where do you want to put your money? Future support and development seems to be my main concern since, almost all of their features are mutually inclusive of one another despite a small few, esp with zapper integrations. Does anyone see something I’m not?
We think the problem most knowledge workers are facing when planning their time is getting all the information from different sources into the same place and navigate/keep the workspace updated.
We think that our solution to productivity makes us quite different from the other tools in the market: Consolidation + Time Blocking. Happy to share more about this
Regarding our roadmap, we are still working on nailing the individual experience, before we look at how team member can interact with each others in a more productive way

Since Timeful got shut down, I've been looking for a great solution for task time-blocking. This comment thread has so many great solutions for me to try, including Akiflow, thanks for working on this problem! I can't use it right now because our corporate Google Workspace accounts are locked from sharing, but looking forward to using it eventually.
Any way / certification we can get to be approved on your Google Workspace?
